Default RE: Acorn Drop / Drought

Here in Northwest TN we are not going to have a mast crop because of the late freeze we had stunted all the mast and nut producing trees. The wildlife office said that some but few trees will produce ths year and that next year it will have the most effect so if you hunt over a food plot. and other sources of food you are going to have one heayll of a deer season..and then on toop of that we are in a drought we have not had a significant rain in 2 months now it is the driest it been since they started keeping records n the 1800's only going to get about 60 bushel per acorn on corn where we average about 160 to 170 bushel per acre and if we don't get any rainin the next week the beans are gone. The early beans have already shed therepods andwill not produce and fixin to get cut for hay because we have no hay ths year either. and then the latebeans are difinately goneif we don't get no rain.
